So for BusterHercules, StagBusterZord forms more of an armour mode add-on for the BeetZord? Either way, i'm definitely gonna get these brutes, especially considering how huge they seem to be!!

I guess the Beet is gonna be like the Ace for Gold and Silver, a core machine that can become a robo but can also receive upgrade mechas. Likewise the Stag is compatable as a weapon upgrade for the Ace.

Will be interesting if the beetles form the base for a busterOh of their own..

Oh hell yea, beetle mecha rule and a TRANSFORMING JET? HOLY CRAP! YES!

I think I need two zords from this line now. Mr. Kitty Car and Commander Sky Beetle.

Just saw that BBTS put up the preorders for Stag, Beet, and Frog. Of course they're much more expensive through BBTS than elsewhere but if you need em they got preorders open.

I'll probably go through Mandarake, as I did for the first three.

Can you give me the link for this online store? I'm about to give up on getting CB-01 from AmiAmi (although I got the set for GT-02 and RH-03 from them).

[ryan]

Sure.

Here is my bookmarked link for the GoBusters search, they have Ace for 3500 yen.

The biggest difficulties with Mandarake is so much of the stuff is only in Japanese, to get good search results you almost always need to search with Japanese text, for which I've used Wikipedia to get series names, and then if the image isn't clear enough, I copy/paste the product info into google translate to make sure I'm getting what I want.
The other problem is no up front shipping estimation. You have to choose credit card payment if you want SAL, but I don't have a problem with that.

Also, be aware that items are actually in different store locations, and orders across multiple locations cannot be combined, and they charge a 500 yen handling fee if the order subtotal is under 5000 yen. It's not usually been a big deal to me. The first several orders I placed I made sure were over 5000, but lately I've been fine with the 500 yen fee, if the items are cheap enough its better to pay the fee than spend a lot more.
But it's seriously my favorite online store right now. I'm somewhat sheepish to admit I've probably placed 10 orders there in the last 6 months, if not more. Actually, probably more, I think I have three in transit right now, Ace, SIC Den-O Sword Form/Momotaros, and I think I placed an order a couple days ago with SH Wing Form Den-O and the last two OOO Combo Change figures I needed.

Thanks alot for the link, ryan! I'm at work so I can't click on it right now, but I'll be sure to do so when I'm home tonight.
